Carrigleitrim: Obstacle course

Summit Comment Colin Murphy 4 days ago
Followed the short summary directions, but the area after the track has now been replanted with saplings, although these were relatively easy to negotiate. The real problems started at the edge of...

Lugnagun: Easier to access than previously

Summit Comment Colin Murphy 4 days ago
Thanks to forest clearing, the approach to this top has been eased considerably. Walk along the forest track for about 1km to O007 121. One the left is a narrow but clearly visible track ascending...

Slieveboy: Did it fall or was it pushed?

Summit Comment Pepe 2 days ago
This poor old trig has keeled over at the Slievboy mast compound. Did it fall or was it pushed? Who knows, perhaps the upside-down beer label (visible in the foreground of the picture) provides a ...

Slieveroe: Take the long view

Summit Comment Colin Murphy 4 days ago
Slieveroe may not be the most exciting of tops, (unless you call being torn to shreds by gorse exciting) but it does have one saving grace - it presents a wonderful view of the Blessington Lakes. ...

Slieveroe: The Great Wall of Wicklow Gorse

Summit Summary Collaborative entry Last edit by: Colin Murphy 4 days ago
Park at N953 137, at the entrance to a small cul de sac. 100m along this on the left there is a gate, leading to a nettled track of sorts, although this is quite navigable. Cross a fence at the en...

Knockannavea: Easy but unexciting bag

Summit Summary Collaborative entry Last edit by: Colin Murphy 4 days ago
Unfortunately this summit is isolated, Spruce covered and not terribly attractive, on the plus side it is easily bagged, using track/s the whole way. Half an hour or so will easily take it in if n...

Park at Pattens Pub and follow the Sli Grainne Mhaol (clockwise) to the high point on the trail, from there a short sharp climb to the summit can be made, I would recommend descent by the same way...

Garmin: Track 2013 in area near Crockmulroney, Donegal NW (Ireland)
Derryveagh- Figure of 8 Circuit

Descent: 228m

Places: Start at B97113 15881, Crockmulroney, Cró an Locháin, Cruach na Sagart, Maumlack, end at Start

Starting at the back gate of Glenveagh national park this walk provides an ever widening vista of the Derryveagh mountains as the walk progresses. I particularly liked how a triangular profile of Errigal gradually appears on the ascent of Staghall mountain until, when i reached the summit of Maumlack mountain the view had widened out to include the entire seven sisters from Muckish to Errigal. The weather conditions on this autumn day yielded enough clarity of visability to also give a glimpse of Slieve League and what I assume to be Ben Bulbin in the far distance to the South.- A thoroughly enjoyable walk!
NB- The correct total ascent for this walk was 608m
